Answer:

Explanation:

To add or subtract two vectors, add or subtract the corresponding components. Let →u=⟨u1,u2⟩ and →v=⟨v1,v2⟩ be two vectors. The sum of two or more vectors is called the resultant. The resultant of two vectors can be found using either the parallelogram method or the triangle method .

To reach its intended destination on time a cruise ship needs to travel north at 70 mph. However, it is travelling in the Gulf o

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

speed is 81.03 mph

direction is N 3.58 W

Explanation:

given data

travel north = 70 mph

Stream current = 12 mph

direction = S 25° E

result due north = 70 mph

to find out

speed and direction

solution

we will get component of resultant that is

v cosθ and v sinθ

( 12cos295 , 12 sin295 ) at ( 0, 70)

as that we can say

v sinθ + 12sin295 = 70 ....................1

v cosθ + 12 cos295 = 0 ......................2

vcosθ = -5.0714

vsinθ = 80.8756

now by ratio

cosθ /sinθ = -5.0714/ 80.8756

cot θ = -0.0627

θ = 93.58

so direction is N 3.58 W

and

we know

vcosθ = - 12cos295

v = - 12cos295 / cos(93.58)

v = 81.03 mph

so speed is 81.03 mph

The world record for the 100.0 meter dash is 9.580 seconds. Find the speed of the runner in miles per hour.

grigory [225]

Answer:

233.1 miles per hours

Explanation:

Speed: This is defined as the ratio of distance to time. The S.I unit of speed is m/s. speed is a vector quantity because it can only be represented by magnitude only. Mathematically, speed can be expressed as,

S = d/t ....................... Equation 1

Where S = speed of the runner, d = distance covered, t = time.

Given: d = 100 meter , t = 9.580 seconds

Conversion:

If, 1 meter = 0.00062 miles

Then, 100 meters = (0.00062×100) miles = 0.62 miles.

Also

If, 3600 s = 1 h

Then, 9.580 s = (1×9.580)/3600 = 0.00266 hours.

Substitute into equation 1

S = 0.62/0.00266

S = 233.1 miles per hours.

Hence the runner speed is 233.1 miles per hours
